Delhi HC Criticizes CLAT PG 2025 Objection Fee, Reserves Verdict on Answer Key Disputes

The Delhi High Court has reserved its verdict on petitions challenging the CLAT PG 2025 answer key and the ₹1,000-per-question objection fee.

A division bench criticized the fee as "prohibitory," noting it could equate to a month's income for some candidates.

Petitioners argued that the fee, coupled with the ₹4,000 registration cost, is exploitative, especially given the one-day window for objections.

The Consortium of NLUs defended the fee as a deterrent to frivolous objections and later withdrew four contested questions. The Court's decision is pending, with the next hearing scheduled for July.
